Stanley Braverman, MD, FACS, is a board-certified ophthalmologist who has dedicated his surgical career to helping Miami LASIK patients achieve clear vision without glasses. Dr. Braverman is proud to serve as the Director of the Braverman Eye Center  a premier refractive eye surgery practice established in 1973 by his brother, Dr. Howard Braverman. Dr. Stanley Braverman joined his brother in 1981, and since then he has earned a reputation as one of the leading LASIK surgeons in Miami.

Dr. Braverman was the first ophthalmologist in Broward County to use an excimer laser to perform LASIK eye surgery. He has since performed thousands of LASIK procedures, and he shares his expertise by teaching other eye surgeons how to perform advanced forms of laser eye surgery. In addition, Dr. Braverman is among a select group of ophthalmologists to serve as an Assistant Clinical Professor at the prestigious Bascom Palmer Eye Institute.

A highly accomplished ophthalmologist, Dr. Braverman is the inventor of several surgical instruments. He is also the author of numerous scientific articles and a co-author of an authoritative book on small incision cataract surgery. He currently serves as a manuscript reviewer for one of the world's most prestigious ophthalmology journals, the American Journal of Ophthalmology. In addition, Dr. Braverman is often invited to speak at medical conferences on the topic of phacoemulsification (an advanced eye surgery technique).

Dr. Braverman is the LASIK surgeon for many eye doctors, celebrities and professional athletes. He and his staff will listen to your needs and desires and will then formulate a Laser Vision Plan that will be individualized to maximize your results.

About Refractive Vision Center at the Braverman Eye Institute

The Refractive Vision Center at the Braverman Eye Center is a leading vision correction center serving South Florida, Miami and Ft. Lauderdale LASIK patients. The center's surgical suite features an array of sophisticated laser technologies, including the Alcon LadarVision excimer laser, LadarWave wavefront CustomCornea technology and the bladeless all-laser Z LASIK platform. In order to promote optimum performance of the laser equipment, the facility is equipped with the Liebert system, which controls humidity and temperature.

Unlike many other laser centers that focus exclusively on LASIK, the Braverman Eye Center also offers other types of refractive eye surgery. At the Braverman Eye Center, we recommend the procedure that is the best for you. This procedure might be LASIK or another state-of-the-art treatment, such as presbyopic lensectomy or cataract surgery.

Cataract Surgery in Miami

For cataracts patients, we offer a range of premium intraocular lens implants (IOLs), such as AcrySof ReSTOR, ReZoom and Array. These IOLs allow our patients to see clearly at various distances. The vast majority of our Miami cataracts patients do not need eyeglasses after their cataracts treatments. A typical example is Gary Player  a professional golfer who underwent cataract surgery with ReZoom IOLs. He reports that he can now see like he used to see when he was thirty years old  and without glasses!

The Braverman Eye Center also offers Crystalens and Tecnis IOLs. Crystalens are accommodating IOLs, which means that these lenses move with the eye's muscles. Tecnis IOLs are an excellent choice for patients who are interested in achieving optimal night vision.

Testimonials from Miami LASIK Patients

"There is not one single day that goes by where I don't think of the great fortune this surgery has brought to my life. I cannot help but be excited every time I see the ocean, or go swimming, or for that matter go anywhere and do anything uninhibited by glasses or contact lenses! It is like a great burden and crutch, which I depended on year after year, has been lifted. Laser Vision Correction was truly the best gift I have ever given myself." Eric Radzwill

"As an optometrist, I am very critical about the surgical skills of surgeons to whom I refer my patients. When it came to my own eyes and laser vision correction, I trusted that same person, Dr. Stanley Braverman at TLC. His surgical precision and expertise corrected my vision beyond my expectations. I had enjoyed the vision contact lenses and glasses gave to me, but my laser vision correction gives me the improved quality of life that they could not." Dr. David Rousse

"It has been one year since my LASIK surgery and I still can't believe that I'm not popping contact lenses into my eyes every morning! My quality of life has definitely changed for the better. Thank you for making it possible!" Judith Imbasala
